GAINESVILLE - Parents and teachers at Flowery Branch High School and Chestnut Mountain Elementary have voted in favor of having their schools seek charter school status.
Hall County Schools Supt. Will Schofield says while there has been a move toward charters for many schools in the system, not all are on that path.
"If all of our charters that are in process right now went through, it would still only be about one-third of our schools," Schofield said. "We are encouraging all of our schools to find their niche and that's the activity of getting together their communities and their staffs and finding out what it is that is going to make them different and what is is that is going to make them special."
Just last week, parents and teachers at Mount Vernon Elementary also agreed to continue a path toward converting to a charter school.
